Ballet clips from British Pathéstarting with Balanchine's Bourree fantastique...

British Pathé released about 90k documentary film clips onto their Youtube channel. I found a clip of Bourree Fantasque with the Festival Ballet (London), taken in 1962 in Prague. The Balanchine works catalogue says that the work was staged for the company in 1960. Video linked below:

There doesn't seem to be any film clips of this work listed in the catalogue, and NYPL lists two films, one taken in 1993, possibly for the Balanchine Celebration, and another with excerpts with Le Clercq, Tallchief, and "partners". Is this the only other film of it, then?

The Nutcracker clips were wonderful.. Well chosen and nicely cut together... I wonder at what time of year this was. Did they bring SAB children to Hamburg in December? Wouldn't that set be needed in NY at that time? Or was the Nutcracker run not as long in 1965?

though Jack's question is, o'course, more than reasonable, i'm afraid that most NYers tend to refer to the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts as The Library, forgetting at times that not everyone is a New Yorker, etc.

I've never been a New Yorker, and I do the same thing, when it comes to dance materials...
